The Sixth International Congress of the IAUS

Program:

The work of the Congress will be organized in three formats:

1. sessions (panels) with a stated theme, 1 chair, 3-4 presenters (presentations up to 15 minutes), and 1-2 discussants;
2. roundtables with a stated theme for discussion, 1 chair, and 3-4 discussants;
3. presentations of publications and research projects.

In addition to the customary fields, the Congress Organizing Committee particularly encourages forming sessions around these thematic blocks:

1. history and culture of southern and eastern Ukraine;
2. regional and local problems of Donbas;
3. Ukrainian-Russian borderlands;
4. ethnic groups in southern and eastern Ukraine;
5. industrialization, urbanization and worker’s movements;
6. the history of science.

When putting together the program of the Congress, the Organizing Committee will give preference to those applications which propose ready-made panels, roundtables and presentations. Should a panel or roundtable proposal be developed by individuals from outside of Ukraine, the Organizing Committee asks that at least one participant from Ukraine be included in it.

The working languages of the Congress will be Ukrainian, English, German, Polish and Russian. If participants of panels or roundtables have the intention to conduct work in another language, the Organizing Committee must be notified in advance.
